Just keep it well maintained. The truck should run well forever.

I second that. refer to the manual and follow it. It has all the info you will need for basic service intervals.

Those throtttle body spacers sound like a scam. Plus I don't recall any Frontiers that had a carburetor.

Throttle body spacers have a noticable benefit to Carb'd engines...however their true benefit to direct injection systems is all hype. There has been little if any documented gains that I have seen or read about. And what I am referrring to is true dyno numbers on engines before and after the installation of a throttle body spacer.

You get more power by installing a bored out throttle body on the VG33 and as far as I know there is only outfil that makes those.
